EEWWW... Actually, it would be more fitting if the outermost one were gates, the next explorer, the next all pcs, the next the whole planet...

You guys are mean!! THOSE ARE COOL! Bill Gates is one of the most respectable, smart men in the world right now. You all are just jealous. If I had unnlimited money, I would buy these dolls, but I have no use for them. I like them! Bill Gates is AWESOME!!! (and so am I.. shhh!)

No offence, Miradu, but the artwork on those is just plain ugly. I mean if I'd want to buy something like that, at least I'd find something that actually looks more like Bill.

I can agree that he's highly intelligent. I can allow that he is respectable (his company, on the other hand ...)
But, is he respected?

ya know, Mr. Gates has a great deal of money ... what's his email address? is he aware of this auction?

Apparently, neither does anyone else.

But can't you win a kewpie doll by knocking them over w/a softball on the midway?....

So somebody finally did that "ten thousand monkeys in a room full of typewriters" experiment, except they put the monkeys in with 'do-it-yourself' paintable nest egg kits.

I wonder what the ones that came out nice looked like?

I respect Bill Gates. Last time I checked.. I was somebody

Those dolls are ugly as hell, but I took the "Eww" as more of the theme of them, not the fact that they need some serious photoshopping.....

I was thinking in a larger, population-at-large sense, over any given individual, but okeydoke!
